WCS Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What do I do if my student will be absent today?
    1. Please call the absent line before 7:40am at 603-845-1554 option: 1 or send an email before 7:40am to [email protected]
    2. Our preferred method is Pick up Patrol. Once in the app, locate the name of the child. Under the dismissal plan, use the drop down arrow to access the next screen. From here, click Plan and change to Absent.
        
  2. What do I need to do if I am picking up my child early from school?
    1. Please put the early dismissal into pick up Patrol and state who is picking your child up. Then the person who is dismissing your child would need to come into the office to sign the student out and show their ID.

  3. If my student is going to be tardy today, what is the process when I get to WCS?
    1. First, please update the late arrival into Pick Up Patrol. Choose the option “Late arrival”, update the estimated time of arrival and include the reason for tardiness. Once you arrive at WCS, walk the student to the Main Office door to buzz them in. Your child will then  enter the building on their own to sign themselves in. *If you do not enter the tardy into Pick Up Patrol- you must walk your student into the building and fill out the blue tardy form located on the center table.
  4. What time does school start?
    1. School starts and attendance is taken at 7:40am. Students are expected to be in the building and sitting in their classroom ready for learning at 7:40.  The first group of students is let out of cars at drop off at 7:15am and the back gate closes at 7:29am. You are then welcome to drop off your student at the front door from 7:29am to 7:38. Students that arrive  past 7:38 must be accompanied into the lobby and office to follow the sign in process as they will be marked tardy. 

  5. What time does school end?
    1. 2:20pm

  6. What time should I come for a car dismissal?
    1.  The back gate opens at 1:45pm. Students are let out of the building at 2:20pm and car dismissal is complete around 2:30pm.
    2. If you arrive after 2:30, you will need to pick your child up in the office.

  7.  My students' end of day plans have changed, what do I do?
    1. Please log  into Pick Up Patrol before 1:20pm to enter any changes to your students' dismissal plans. The teachers get sent a copy of their pick up patrol changes after the 1:20pm cut off time. If there are any plan changes after 1:20pm you will need to email [email protected] with dismissal directions AND you will need to call the office staff at 603 845 1554 ext. 3802

  8. I have something to drop off for my student, what should I do?
    1. Please come into the lobby and fill out a sticky note with your child's name on it, stick it to the item and leave it on the middle table in the lobby and staff will pick it up and place it on the table outside the office for your child to retrieve.  We will only call into the classroom for items such as glasses or computers. This is to ensure we are able to preserve uninterrupted learning time for all students. 

  9. What is the latest time I can pick up my student at the end of the day?
    1. We ask that you pick up from the office by 1:45pm.  The office is very busy at the end of the day and picking up past that time may result in extra wait time as well as getting caught by the buses arriving. 

  10. How do I sign up for after school activities?
    1.  All communication for WCS after school activities will be found in the weekly newsletter that goes out in the Power Hub on Friday afternoons.
